How to Upload Your Own Images and Drawings Into the Cricut Design Space

Good morning! People often ask me what my favourite DIY tool is. I think they expect me to say a tool (in which case I would say scroll saw!), but I usually tell them that it’s my Cricut! Not only is there a huge database of Cricut images to use for DIY Crafts and home decor projects, you can also upload your own Cricut images for your DIY projects too.

If you own a Cricut and you haven’t used this feature yet, you’e going to thank you very soon! You can draw your own images and scan them to your computer, or download pictures that you want to use for your own DIY signs, pillows, artwork – you name it!

If you have a PDF image, you must save it as an image before you upload it.

I love this “Hello” template! Thank you for sharing! I just purchased my first ever Cricut and have so much to learn. I am looking forward to receiving your emails to help me along the way to creating many beautiful things!

Thank you for this! I’ve been struggling to find a simple tutorial for this, given its the main reason I got my Cricut. I have a question, if you can help! How do you set your Cricut to then draw this custom design instead of cutting it? I make cards and would like to be able to upload my drawn designs and have the Cricut draw them for me when needed (huge time saver!)

Oh amazing! I’m so glad the tutorial was helpful! Once you have your image uploaded, you go to the layers bar on the right hand side. Beside your image there will be a tiny scissors icon – click on that. It will open another side bar, and at the top you can see “write” with a pen image – click that and the Cricut will switch to drawing your image.
